Company's Coming~

Company is a coming~ And we are almost......ready! Almost is the key...kids are on a meltdown from all the cleaning...but it had to be done! With my illness things can go by the wayside for months and then well.....the slack must be picked up~ So no slackers allowed!haha
But the house is clean besides the garage and my room and both are "off limits". Just have several errands to run...Publix and Winn Dixie and Ross and the bank.....wow! And tonight I will collapse in bed!ha I hope the girls have a wonderful time and hope Kathleen gets the rest she needs....Tom spent all of last night applying for jobs online which I must say did not help his mood.....not much out there right now and his present job is just awful~ I almost think he would be better off with two part-time jobs...if only we could find health insurance that would cover me~ The joys of Lupus...it is the gift that keeps on giving.....I am sitting here trying to get some sort of rest as my knee and foot and everything else just still hurts a great deal from the accident. I suppose this is going to be a slow recovery....which is the absolute pits given everything that is going on right now~ I am supposed to be looking for a job...ahahaha How does one work in my condition?~ I would like to know....and in all the years that we have been married with the exception of my working with Tom with our business .....he has never asked me to work! So this is serious...so very serious~ I know the Lord is in Control...but at this point I am begging Him to make his presence known. I am tired and feel weary and worn...there are days that I feel defeated. There are days that we feel defeated~ LORD HEAR OUR CRY FOR YOUR MERCY!

PSALM 40
I WAITED PATIENTLY FOR THE LORD TO HELP ME,
AND HE TURNED TO ME AND HEARD MY CRY.
HE LIFTS ME OUT OF THE PIT OF DESPAIR,
OUT OF THE MUD AND THE MIRE.
HE SET MY FEET ON SOLID GROUND
AND STEADIED ME AS I WALKED ALONG.
HE HAS GIVEN ME A NEW SONG TO SING,
A HYMN OF PRAISE TO OUR GOD.
MANY WILL SEE WHAT HE HAS DONE AND BE AMAZED.
THEY WILL PUT THEIR TRUST IN THE LORD.
OH , THE JOYS OF THOSE WHO TRUST IN THE LORD.
WHO HAVE NO CONFIDENCE IN THE PROUD
OR IN THOSE WHO WORSHIP IDOLS,
OF LORD MY GOD, YOU HAVE PERFORMED
MANY WONDERS FOR US.
YOUR PLANS FOR US ARE TOO NUMEROUS TO LIST.
YOU HAVE NO EQUAL!
